Its that time of year again.
Not only is June recognized as Pride Month in many places around the world, its also when some straight folks decide to whine about the fact that theres no such thing as Heterosexual Pride Month or Day.
Case in point: On Twitter today, #HeterosexualPrideDay began trending. The day apparently became a thing on June 29, 2016 and rears its ugly head once again this year. However, were happy to report that most Twitter users werent having it and their hilarious responses to the ridiculous hashtag almost make up for the fact that some dumb asses actually think it deserves to be an officially recognized holiday (it doesnt. )
Check out some of our favorite tweets below.

Straight people aren't oppressed. They aren't beaten and killed for who they are. This hashtag isn't funny, it's shit. #HeterosexualPrideDay

What's next, an awareness ribbon campaign for people who have survived a life of perfect health?
Best things about #HeterosexualPrideDay :

1) Anyone genuinely celebrating it outs themselves as human garbage
2) LGBTQ+ folks throwing shade
#HeterosexualPrideDay is this like those kids who want to get crutches for fun bc they think it's cool when their injured friend needs them
